Hettie Green in Chicago.
CHICAGO Herald.

Hettie Green formerly of Bellows
Falls, worth twice as much, probably,
as Phil Armour, weighs just about the
same, and gets down to her Dearborn
street Office at just about the same
hour that the packer reaches his La
Sale street headquarters. All these
statements are at variance with pOpu-
lar notion. Very few people, indeed,
probably have any idea that Hettie
Green had Chicago office. Then, too,
every popular picture of the woman
worth So, 10000 had been of thin,
angular, vinegary female whose clothes
dragged on the ground. She is, in
fact, big, plump woman, who must
turn the scale at 100 pounds, and her
tOgs are frst-class. The Rowland
block is hers, and her private office is
on the second floor, i'll the rooms of her
Chicago agents. She has been here
some weeks, and her son, an amiable,
unassuming sort of young fellow, is
here permanently, over at IL Ann
street.
A broker who had loan to make
met Hettie Green Oh the street at 9
o'clock one morning this week and pre-
scented the opportunity to her. "rhat
was offered to me at Z o'clock this
morning." she said sharply, ''and l re-
fused it," The broker had had an idea
that women with more money than
they knew how to invest laid abed un-
til about 10. Mrs. Green doesn't spend
any of her mOHey at the hotels. She
takes lodging with her agent down on
the south side, comes down on an early
car, during the day walking is good
enough for her. The boy doesn't
weigh much more than half as much as
his mother, but has some of the mater
nal instincts. To go to the expense of
printing a business card would be an
abomination. So he has little rub
Der stamp, and when card is at all
necessary he tears off little piece of
paper-frOm a newspaper in one in
stance that the writer knows Of-and
stamps thereon: "E. H. H. Green,
Real Estate, AZ Ann street."
| Hettie Green owns the Rowland
block. She loaned Honore $250,000
on it when he was flying high, and
when he couldn't pay the interest
Hettie took the property. A broker
says he would like to have it to sell
now at $75O,0O0. She had a $3.50, 900
mortgage on the Major block at the
same time, and was very much dis
gruntled because the owner was en-
abled to get around and redeem. She
has big blocks of improved property
all over the city. Her big investment
here, however, is in loans. They are
believed to aggregate about So, OOO,OOO.

Liquor Fines.

The recent decision of the supreme
court in a suit by the state against st.
Johnsbury, to recover fines paid under
the liqnor law, in which it was held
that they must go to the state treasury
instead of to town and village treasu-
ries, is likely to result in restitution
being demanded in several other c0un-
ties. The states attorney of Benning-
ton county is preparing papers for the
recovery of fines that have been re-
ceived by many of the towns and by
the village of Bennington. The Re-
former says that village is estimated to
be liable for two or three thousand
dollars.

The Presidents Wife and the Ex-Presi-

Washington Letter to Cincinnati Enquirer.
said, took place in the academy of
music in Philadelphia last Friday
night, and which was only observed by
a few persons, will be of interest to
Ohio readers. 1t was upon the Occas-
ion of the presidents reception, which
went far toward demonstrating the
wOmanly tact possessed by the wife of
the nations head. Among the many
prominent people present was expires
ident Hayes. Naturally of retiring
disposition, he did not mingle to any
great extent with the celebrities. When
the time arrived for the presidential
party to take their places on the stage,
they formed in couples, and the ex-
president was left without partner.
At this moment the president and Mrs.
Cleveland entered the green-rOOm from
the proseenium box. Mrs. Cleveland,
with wOmanly instinct, took in the
situation at glance, and in an instant
glided across the floor, past the rest of
the company, laid her baud upon the
eX-presidents arm, and took up her
position at the head of the line. Pres
ident Cleveland took Chairman Kas
sons arm, and in this order the party
filed on the stage. The whole thing
was the work of a second, but in that
time Mr.. Hayes was relieved from an
embarrassing position, and Mrs. Cleve-
land had scored another of those inim-
liable strokes of finesse for which she
is noted.
